Marilyn Manson probably doesn't want your prayers right now, but your thoughts might come in handy.

The 48-year-old musician was hospitalized after two stage props in the shape of guns fell on him during a Saturday evening performance at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom.

Fans captured footage of the singer that quickly circulated online, showing Manson appearing to climb the props before they came crashing down.

“It happened in the middle of his song 'Sweet Dreams,'" a fan present at the show, Yousif Al Zaid, told The Guardian. "He performed it and all of a sudden he climbed on to the two guns....At the end of the song he bent over holding one of the poles and tipped over," he continued.

"Then it all went silent and you could hear a pin drop. Everyone rushed to him and there were rumors he was dead. Then they brought out a stretcher and he was taken away."

"Manson suffered an injury towards the end of his incredible NYC show. He is being treated at a local hospital," a representative for Manson said to Rolling Stone.

According to multiple reports, Manson was freed from under the props after several minutes by EMT workers.
